26"W x 26"H Excellent condition, Lithograph in colors on fine matte finish art paper, Unframed.
This coveted original vintage poster was created by Robert Rauschenberg for the United Nations Earth Summit Conference on Environment and Development, held in Rio de Janeiro in June 1992, with the participation of 178 nations. The artwork, titled Last Turn–Your Turn, launched the Earth Pledge and became the official image of the conference. It showcases Rauschenberg’s signature collage aesthetic –an arresting fusion of layered imagery sourced from mass media, combined with expressive brushstrokes and text, all coalescing into a very powerful visual statement. The composition unfolds in a clockwise narrative: starting with a baby in a stroller in the foreground, the vibrant, life-filled, verdant world gradually gives way to barren trees, ultimately devolving into a bleak, lifeless globe borne by the figure of Atlas. Time is running out. Last Turn–Your Turn. Printed as a premium quality color lithograph on fine matte paper, this original vintage poster beautifully captures the artwork’s vibrant palette and the rich, nuanced depth of its layered composition. A compelling work of art and an environmental call to action, it remains as resonant today as it was in 1992.
